@data_depot Right-wingers are totally disconnected from the reality of current higher education and what these students are being fed.
If someone believes that right-leaning speakers are literal Nazis, then these stats make sense—it is the only rational thing to do: to ban them, obviously.
Milton Friedman: “I am not a conservative. I’ve never been a conservative. Hayek was not a conservative.”
“We are liberals in the true meaning of that term: concerned with freedom. We are not liberals in the current distorted sense—those liberal with other people’s money.”
Every Western country feels this way. Muslims are just awful - as a group, they're violent, parasitic, fanatical about religion, and they bring all their dysfunction with them. There's absolutely nothing to be gained by allowing you to live in countries you could never have built for yourselves - what could you possibly bring that's actually valuable? Just nothing.
Even before the 9/11 attacks, Col. Richard "Rick" Rescorla was a decorated war hero with a Silver Star from his actions in Vietnam.
25 years ago today, Rescorla saved 2,687 people and paid the ultimate sacrifice.
Here’s how it happened. 🧵
Can I just say… I despise this. Just two open wounds in downtown Manhattan that we failed to rebuild.
We could’ve built a beautiful 9/11 memorial and still built back the twin towers bigger and better than before. Instead we have these gaping holes, a monument to the weakness and incompetence of the people running NYC.
Honor the victims and REBUILD.
🇺🇦🕯️ Legendary Ukrainian fighter Serhiy “Bortsukha” has been killed
In the first days of the Russian invasion, he rode a bicycle toward Irpin with only three RPG-7 rounds to stop Russian columns heading for the Kyiv region.
Serhiy commanded a marine unit and died a few days ago in an airstrike. His fellow soldiers remembered him as a man who inspired others through his personal example.
Eternal memory to the Hero!
@hykleri More accurate method of measuring income is probably household final consumption expenditure per capita, Estonia is bellow Russia but Lithuania and Latvia are definitely doing better than Russia

Under Biden and Obama, SpaceX got no reprieve. They had to do absurd nonsense all the time in order to do anything.
Under Obama, the FAA made SpaceX write a book report on local activity in the Mexican-American War.
Lindsey Graham was one of the few true neocons. He wasn’t in politics to be a corrupt, power hungry money grabber, but because he genuinely believed everything he preached. He truly believed we should bomb our enemies out of existence, and I respect him greatly for that.
